Hey y’all. I almost made this just a discussion forum instead of a real RHOA recap tonight. As many of you know the cheese is sliding off my sandwich a bit over here. My anxiety and depression is becoming unmanageable and I am ready to try meds again. I guess. Also, you guys are always raving about CBD oil. I’d like to know who company you have found success with for me and for Banjo. He’s not doing well either, I’ve completely messed up his feeding/outdoor schedule and unlike me, he is very regimented. đ
Anyway. I was talking to my best source this week and apparently this is a pivotal episode and perhaps the last time we see Yovanna. Also, Nene is crowing to production that “her episode” got them 2 million views and she’s like ANOTHER raise. If you are like me you are wondering WTF “her episode” was. I’m to crazy to care at the moment.
We start with Dennis proposing. Check out this blind item. I guess for the second proposal after you cheat on your fiancĂŠe while she is pregnant you propose on two knees. Whatevia. Moving on. Back on the bus, Porsha denies the claims from Tasha K that Dennis is into animal porn. I believe Tasha K. I don’t know why, I just like her. Kandi and Kenya are not buying this whole engagement thing. My struggle bus is worse than this struggle bus. Thinks move on to #SnakeGate. Thank God I think this all ends with this episode.

But first, we have a meeting where the RHOA are ready to go in on Yovanna. Marlo tries to cover for Yovanna. Because production used Marlo and Yovanna as bone carriers in the beginning of the season when no one wanted to film with Nene. Much of that ended up being edited out. Yovanna was essentially edited out of a lot of things. Production was unhappy with Yovanna. Yovanna was not paid much at all for this season. Like maybe five percent of what Nene made.
Titties Hanging Out And Errythang!
RIght when this is all going down, Nene walks in drunk? high? with here tit hanging out. On a positive note at least she is not wearing a white Hanes T-shirt for men. I love Eva. I need more Eva. Everyone gets testy over the recording situation. EVEN CYNTHIA! Did a backbone come with Mike’s proposal because she finally got one from some damn where. And she “whatever bitches” Marlo. Girl, Marlo will sliced you up without hesitation. Somehow in all the screaming, Nene makes it seem like we are seeing a new Cynthia. This is who Cynthia is according to Nene. Girl. bye.

Kandi is the sanest person in the room as usual. Kenya is being a drama queen again. Yovanna is eventually outed as the snake. But first Yovanna calls out Dennis for being a snake and Porsha is NOT having it. I am slow on the uptake here but Porsha wants to fight Yovanna. By the way none of these bitches wanted to film with Yovanna in the first place. Marlo calls Cynthia a bald headed scallywag as she flees from the whole drama. For some damn reason Nene goes chasing after Cynthia. Nene finally admits that Yovanna is the snake. Also WTF is Marlo wearing. She has some sort of a see through covering over a black bra and panties.
Chaos Erupts
This is impossible to recap or follow. It’s a hot mess up in here (up in heah). Oh my. Yovanna starts screaming to Porsha about Dennis fucking animals. And. It. Is ON. Meanwhile, Nene and Cynthia are in the hallway talking about basically nothing. Then suddenly everyone is in the hallway. I can’t believe I didn’t have anyone in this hotel looking out the peephole. When they went to the Four Seasons in Hawaii I had like six people contact me who were on the same floor. Can you imagine being on vacation on the floor when all of this was going down? They must of taken the whole floor of this hotel, otherwise someone would have contacted me.

Then somehow right in the middle of the episode. Kenya and Nene are back in the same room, apparently Marlo’s room when things get physical AGAIN and security has to break them up. REALLY? Clearly Bravo pays Nene to physically attack people. And why Nene thinks we want to see her saggy tits is beyond me. Somehow, Tanya missed the whole thing. So, now Nene gets to tell her story to Tanya.
Oh, We Practically Forgot About Carnival
Porsha brings the brown juice as usual. Cynthia doesn’t want to be around Marlo, yet she must. For once everyone is having fun with Nene gone. Especially, Tanya. God this feels like the longest episode ever. Cynthia hates Marlo. And Nene.

Oh noe. I am not prepared for a dinner. Oh great,, I am behind and apparently not watching the DVRed version. Oh also my source says Kenya wears a wig for the first time on this episode. Interesting. Apparently this is the scene. Marlo apologizes to Cynthia for her drunken remarks. She seems sincere and Cynthia accepts her apology. Or not. Marlo’s passport was found. Then Marlo calls out Kenya for wearing a wig. LOL. Shit Happens. Oddly this is going well. Since Nene is not there. Kenya is jealous over Tanya’s happiness. So she is being messy.
Then she basically tell Tanya her man is cheating. Kenya implies that Tanya’s man has two phones.
And that is all I can do for you tonight. I promise I am trying to get myself together.
I get it, TT. A lot of us have been going through a lot lately. Maybe later, I’ll drop a line offline to talk more about this family situation I’m dealing with in OC. Fortunately for me, we may be near some kind of happy(-ish?) ending.
Anyways, to Atlanta: I binged some episodes yesterday, and it was pretty obvious to me to Yovanna was “The Snake” all along. Were all the rest of them completely unaware of her and Tanya carrying bones to Nene, or did they just have to play dumb in front of the cameras?
I hope Porsha finds happiness with Dennis, but my hopes still aren’t high there. Has he really learned any lessons, or is he just kissing up to Porsha for camera time?
Yovanna lost her peach before she could even be considered for one đ
Unfortunately sheâll get the Tammy treatment but the difference is I actually liked Tammy. You was on the wrong team Yovanna especially when you was in good with Kandi, Porsha and Cynthia in the beginning, that alone wouldâve got you a full season peach or not. At this point if an audio isnât produced at the reunion then Iâll believe one never existed and it was something Nene came up with for a fake storyline and Yovanna was collateral damage.
The hotel room scene was ridiculous and embarrassing, itâs no reason it shouldâve gotten to that point. I get that these housewives shows need drama but really ladies? Iâm past tired of Nene and her Shenanigans and donât get me started on Kenyaâs miserable ass.
While the ladies was in the room fighting, Tanya was in the room enjoying her man. Kenya coming at Tanya came out of nowhere and I donât know how I feel about it yet.
As Iâve stated Eva is better suited in a friend role because she just doesnât mesh or fit to me. She has no storyline this season so I honestly donât get bravos reason for giving her a peach.
Itâs sad that on the twelfth season of this show all we can get is a damn snake gate and Porsha and Kenyaâs relationship drama and even that is played out because we already know whatâs gonna happen because of all the leaks on social media.
Nene can go next season, she brings nothing to this show anymore and can get the Vicki treatment. Kandi may be boring but her storylines arenât if that makes sense. My boo Cynthiaâs wedding got her another season hopefully and I know Porsha ainât going anywhere but this drama with Nene and Kenya is played out and they can both go.
I donât think Kenya came at Tanya, she asked the question of the entire group. Hell Kenya couldâve been talking about herself, Porsha etc. The viewers didnât know about the cookie lady thing until after Kenya asked the question. Or at least I didnât. Besides I think this is production driven because itâs the misogyny channel and they thrive on the demise of peopleâs relationships.
Poppa and Barkley is a really good cbd company. They have a wide variety of strengths and delivery methods and are known to use high quality ingredients.
Thank you for this—I wanted to say that I hope TT and Banjo get some good suggestions. My friend used it for herself and her dog (anxiety), and I know someone else who uses it (dog and self) arthritis. I will ask brands. Both went in somewhat skeptical, but noticed improvement after first month. I’m rooting for you both đ
Finally, a Atlanta episode that was interesting. It took long enough.
And why is Kenya coming for Tanya? Tanya has done nothing to warrant the messiness. It just makes Kenya look miserable…..
And she is…
Dragonflyrising.live. She’s a local GA girl who is extremely knowledgeable about the industry and cbd and she carries the best products and even makes her own teas. She works with different cbd and vape shops as well as selling her products online.
Iâm very interested in medicinal marijuana. I take an anti-depressant and Xanax. I would like to have a vape pen. Anyhoo…is this legal every where? I am in NC. I wonder if it would also help you Tamara.
I have also heard many people talk about CBD oil for their dogs. My friend is using it for her Beagle who is very sick. She is thrilled with the results.
My friend uses it for her 7yr old who has Juvenile epilepsy. Itâs the ONLY thing that has brought relief from the small seizures but has not turned him into a walking zombie / raging lunatic. CHOC – who had been her drs for yrs – refused at first to see him anymore when she told them what she had been doing for the last 4 months. Said they could not, legally. So she put him back on their meds for about 6 wks. He digressed rapidly and dramatically. CHOC reversed their opinion and he is back on low dosage CBD & doing great. And CHOC is continuing to see him
I use the vape pen and you can get numerous doses and mixtures of it, more CBD or more THC. I just read a lot of CBD stores are so unregulated and getting investigated by FDA, Iâd rather just go to a dispensary and know exactly what Iâm getting. I watched a live pd and my god those southern states donât play with marijuana/ get a card!
CBD just makes me exhausted….. I donât need help in that department… never thought of it for my dog though…. she hates fireworks & I hate watching her hate fireworks… Iâm afraid sheâs going to have a heart attack 1 day
When I tried pot in the 80s it just made me very parnoid. I have never liked it, I too think the gummies wlll make this narcoleptic more sleepy. But at times I am so very lonely and scared, I may need to just be knocked out
Did Kenya really think the stuff about Marcâs other family wouldnât come out? Why attempt to embarrass Tanya when Marc did much worse? Kenya should just shut up and enjoy her child. For CBD I buy from District Hemp out of DC. they have a webpage. She sells quality products.
Thanks just ordered some gummies for me and treats for Banjo if he lives until the next fireworks shit. I am really worried because I am always half way to shutting down and sleeping pot makes me paranoid. and i am not sure this is the answer,
CBD is great for anxiety and helping with sleep. The topicals are great for pain. Totally different feeling than marijuana
TT, please take care of yourself. If you need some down time, PLEASE take it. Depression is no joke. I want you to know that I care, and I’m rooting for you. Sending you a massive hug. I’m sorry you are going through this đ
You know what a stick in the mud I am about anything recreational & fun yet I would so like to hear you try out the CBC oil for both you & Banjo. If anything it may spark creative writing endeavors 101 & I love your witty verbiage. Working around the clock par usual miss you much xoxo Marc ps. Hello to Nanette & all of our favorites near & far. Tickets to Marc Anthony 2 weeks from today in Boston! Aye Papi every mo in Massachusetts will be there. Will send photos etc !
I was gonna suggest DC Hemp. She’s originally out of VA, but recently opened a shop in DC. Glad you got something, TT!
I would highly recommend not eating an entire gummy the first time (if it has any amount of THC even grace). Edibles effect people very differently. The effect lasts much longer and it can be a very uncomfortable body feeling. Almost like your skin is crawling. I would recommend trying CBD vape juice that you put a few drops under your tongue. This will help anxiety much better IMO.
Hope you find relief.
Now Kenya need to send for Marc and get on him like she does her coworker, and let’s see that storyline play out.
Check out kentuckyhempworks.com
Look into tonic cbd (the website may be tonicvibes) this is a product Iâm willing to vouch for and I wonât for most products. They also make a pet line which we use for my dog as well.
Another option is mondomeds which is a powder form and can be used in foods, drinks etc I would think you may also be able to sprinkle in banjos food if you needed to as well.
Poor Yovanna, bless her heart. She made a grab for a peach and ended up with the pits!
Porsha was cracking me up calling her YoYo. Something mustâve happened off camera to make all the ladies refuse to film with Yovanna after Toronto. Maybe it was because Yovanna said they were all fake.
Ya gotta hand it to Kenya. She knows how to bring the mess on this show.
But why does she have to pick on someone like Tanya, whoâs in a happy relationship and never did anything to Kenya?
Because misery loves company.
That is so wrong no matter how you look at it…Kenya need to stop bringing so messy, there is not enough money for me to do that to another female, no matter how I may feel about them, a black female at that on national TV. That one of the reasons why we are talked about and disrespected by other race people. (SMH)
I take CBD before bedtime and I do sleep better. I can’t say it helps with much else. I use a brand from where I buy my fitness junk that claims to have super clean oil (not Tamras snake oil). My mother swears that CBD cream is great on her leg cramps and my aunt uses it on shoulder injuries, but I tried it in my shin splits and nothing. I’m not sure it’s the cure all others claim, but may work differently on others. Also I have given the oil to my crazy girl dog to calm her down which seemed to work.
I just recently caught up on watching this season on demand and why are they gunning for poor Tanya, one of the only lights other than Kandi’s facial expressions
(I live for those!), I’ve seen in this haggard cast at times. As much shit as Kenya is going through with her man don’t think all are a POS like hers! Please, please Bravo put a fork in Nene because her tired story lines are done. She failed in Hollywood, I’m just over it.
Otherwise feel better TT and find the right combo that works for you.
two things for me this week.
#1. Nothing in the show made me cringe and/or yell OH NO YOU DI UNT! & thatâs pretty rare for RHOA, my fav RH to hate.
#2. WHATS IN THE FRICKING BAG THAT KENYA FORGOT IN CANADA?? đ¤Łđ¤Ł. If Tanya is using it as a Tea Bag… itâs gotta be hilarious
I was cracking up when Nene & Kenya almost got into fisticuffs. The look on Nene’s face was pathetically priceless. I was thinking “King Kong vs Godzilla” and “Clash of the Titans.” It was absolute ridiculousness and I rewound my DVR about 5 times on that chaos.
Kenya ran her ass up out there fast too. She had a flashback of what happened to her before with Porsha. NeNe was going to give her that long overdue ass beating.
What was Yovanna wearing in that hotel room? She looked like a junkie just released from the halfway house
Hi Tamara – on the CBD oil – KOI is the absolute best for anxiety as well as the lotion for pain. I have taken the Koi drops before I go to bed and it really helps. The KOI (like the phish) 500 mg pain lotion that comes in a glass container is literally a miracle salve. I had muscle spasms so bad in my back and the cream (and therapy) saved me. Try it, if anyone has any chronic muscle or arthritis pain, I highly recommend. My friend has lupus and told me about it and I got it and I couldn’t believe how well it worked. Hang in there!
I meant KOI like the fish not phish the band LOL
Austin and kat oil for my dog,i buy 300 mg for him. I use gummies for anxiety, i get yelled at most of the day on the phone (government customer service rep people take anything out on us) the gummies help take the edge off. My brother treats his anxiety with medical marijuana but i was essentially sitting in a corner stressed when i tried it.
Nene is useless, and Kenya is pretty messy this season, i hope we get back on track.
I really want to know what the hell Neneâs tit was doing just hanging out like that. She is so trashy, no raise in paycheck will ever change that. I loved Kandi and Eva being like đ at her.
She clearly intended to make an entrance with her exposed boob as she draped her robe off her shoulder to reveal it. I was mortified for her family. Parched much Nene?
Iâm so sorry the anxiety is back. As a life long sufferer of GAD I feel for you. Buspar and Xanax and medical marijuana saved me and has given me some quality of life. If your state allows it, think about getting your card and go to the dispensary. Theyâve got higher levels of CBD w a tiny bit of THC and it really does help. Sending good thoughts-
Jeez totally forgot about California Poppy! Try this first! Itâs on Amazon and you mix it w liquid and drink and holy shit it works. Really quickly removes anxiety and several people say it helps w pain too.
Therapy and a few meds have always worked wonders for me. Usually if I find myself thinking I might need some help, Iâm actually at a point where I needed to see someone about a month ago. Thatâs just me, but maybe you can relate?
Nene has two distinctly different narratives in confessional: âI want to make up with Cynthia â or âCynthia is secretly the devil.â Perhaps depending on which story she selling that day?
Sending you positive thoughts, prayers and hugs thru this time. And to Banjo too. Take care of yourself. We all adore you.
Re: CBD
As someone who has done a lot of research and who has a medical marijuana card… let me give you my two cents:
CBD products that are derived from hemp will probably not give you the relief youâre looking for. CBD actually needs THC (the stuff in marijuana that gets you high) to âactivateâ the healing properties contained in CBD.
Taking CBD derived from hemp products is akin to just taking vitamins; ie: itâs good for general health and wellness but wonât give you specific relief for specific maladies.
That being said, it is possible to purchase CBD products with low, very low, and exceedingly low levels of THC. You can get products with a ratio of anywhere from 1:1 cbd/thc all the way down to 18:1. Meaning 18 parts CBD and only 1 part THC. Which also means it will not make you stoned, thereâs juuuuuust enough THC to activate the healing properties of the CBD.
Now that California has legalized marijuana, a LOT of places are selling CBD products. Our local CVS and Walgreenâs carry an extensive range of products! Alas, the stigma surrounding marijuana is still very real and all these âgeneralâ grocery type stores only sell CBD products that are derived from hemp. So lots of Armchair Experts have duly sampled them and declared that âCBD products are a bunch of hypeâ and donât work.
Do yourself and Banjo a favor and make sure you purchase CBD products that contain THC. Thatâs the key to using CBD and benefiting from all that it has to offer.
Iâm not sure what resources you have available in your State. I do know that Eaze.com operates in many, many States so if you have access, Iâd highly recommend them. Also, Leafly.com is an excellent site for research purposes.
Thanks for all that you do!
Be well,
Carson
Thanks. I am clueless I HATED pot when I tried it. It made me very paranoid. I am not optimistic but runnng out of options. Pot is still illegal in my state I think.
I had the same reaction (paranoia) when I tried it in college. Many friends swear by it now as itâs âmedical grade â. I finally caved a few years ago when I knew my kids would be out of state and planned it out. My friend got the kind for anxiety and depression. I ended up high as fuck and just as paranoid. She had the foresight to cook a big meal for the occasion so I basically had a binge session with the munchies and then passed out in a food coma. đ she and her partner were quick to tell everyone to lay off getting me to try it again. I evidently am not funny or fun when high and paranoid. Sigh. I really wanted it to work. I hope you have better results but just to let you know youâre not alone if it doesnât work. Some of us just have to take our meds. Itâs not the worst thing in the world except it does interfere with drinking. But lentil season is soon so thereâs that… that usually makes you feel better. Sending you good wishes for whatever works. (Just remember that the cold months hit all of us with depression harder. I think itâs not enough sunlight? Maybe cold is harder on dog too?) Hope you both get better soon. anyway, love to you and Banjo xo
Crystal Creek Organics Full Spectrum Sublingual 3000 mg in 30 ml bottle. Run, don’t walk, to their website and order now. It will be life changing!! I have tried quite a few different options in the process of weaning off of massive amounts of pain meds for a back injury. This is the only one that has provided relief, helped me sleep better, eased anxiety, helped with constipation (a bonus!), and given me an overall sense of well-being. I can’t explain it. But, it has to be this one, in this dosage. I am off of all the pharmaceutical crap altogether now – after years of being on various meds. And, I can function well at work without any problems related to the CBD. It’s not cheap, but only take a small amount at a time under your tongue. I hope it works for you like it has for me!
Marlo called Cynthia a “bald scallywag”. What is she a pirate?
I am sorry for what youâre going through, TT. That lawn boy episode didnât help. Best to you on your path to wellbeing. â¤ď¸
1. WTF was Nene on?
2. Kenya’s ass looked incredibly fake when she was in her carnival costume.
3. Misery loves company hence why Kenya is being messy with Tanya
4. Tanya is a bit much some times but I do think she is genuine
5. Nene and Marlo need to go. Thank goodness Jovanna is now gone too
My Dr. recommends Charlottes Web brand. I tried a round and noticed no difference in either my mental state/anxiety or joint pain. I haven’t re-ordered cuz I’m too cheap. I was high a lot throughout the 70’s…a lot a lot…but was often paranoid too. Preferred speed and beer.
I loved the sights of Toronto but Carnival looked kinda dumb.
Your use of “a lot a lot” made me smile. xo ~tt
I don’t really know what’s really going on b’c I missed a few episodes. Apparently Yo Yo is a snake and the cast hates her. Okay. Get rid of her then. All that screaming last night and Nene’s boob hanging out was a little much.
As for the CBD oil. I can’t handle pot, not only do I get paranoid, I hallucinate from it, no joke. It is bad. I want to try CBD oil as well, just need to find the right one for myself. I want something for pain and anxiety.
Thanks for everyone’s suggestions. Hope you feel better Tamara and everyone else here who struggles.
